Manchester pride usual 8 plus 3 extra

whats spinster? First time I have seen it mentioned and given it seems to have ruffled supporters of TRAs (or possibly TRAs themselves) I'm guessing its something that I want to be part of.

You can read all about it here spinster.xyz/about There is a lot of misinformation on twitter, because it really upsets the TRAs that they are powerless to silence the women who spin there.

All those uppity witches, and not a scold's bridle as far as the eye can see.

My anagram name didn’t make sense

But the first two words were

Budwieser defiler

Power to these lesbians, again. The story of the detransitioner made me fill up. So many yung people are going to be damaged by this bullshit. And the 'thought you wanted debate' argument, on a thread about lesbians rejecting people with penises?! What the actual fuck? No, theres no debate to be had in if lesbians should be pressured to accept male sexual partners for fucks sake..

Once again, it's an absolutely brilliant thread.

Once again the women of FWR take a goady OP and turn it into something actually useful.

Thanks everyone!

Shame these bastions of right-on ness did fuck all for women eh?

wacademia exactly- and the public sector like the NHS and other public services, the civil service, voluntary sector and charities, academia, and the arts and humanities sector are both very big employers of women and have been the first to chuck them under the bus in the name of being ‘inclusive’ so that takes out a fuck of a lot of reality-based women who can exactly see what all this is doing to women and would otherwise be out there protesting.

I know women who daren't protest due to risks of doxxing and abuse.

Like me. I can't risk my job until the mortgage is paid off and these shits would contact my employer and try to get me fired. Then there's the risk to my family, my pets... My cats go out and are very insistent about doing so, and I have nightmares about being outed and finding a little furry corpse on the doorstep with "fuck terfs" sprayed on the door. We know that these people doxx us, we know that they have physically assaulted Maria, we know that they have vandalised Prof Stock's office door, we know about the bomb threat and bomb making materials found in Hastings, and we know that abusers escalate the abuse when they see their victims trying to escape. So I don't think my fears are unjustified.

My lesbian friends have all stopped going to our local Pride because it's now such a misogynist environment.

It's not actually all the same women turning up at each event. I know some of the women who have attended recent northern Prides promoting sex rather than gender. Strangely some of them have things like jobs and kids and other adult responsibilities that prevent them from attending each and every event, I know, weird that. I know quite a lot of women with kids who won't attend specifically because of the fetishistic displays. I know women who daren't protest due to risks of doxxing and abuse. I know a woman who was followed and harassed after the Leeds Pride who is now scared to attend future events. So, not only is it not all the same women (though I understand that to some people women without long hair and frocks look all the same!), but there are valid reasons that many women won't attend because of fear. But it's definitely not all the same women attending and the relatively small number of women sticking their necks out at Pride is in no way representative of the women in the general population who completely agree with them.

I’ve had my double about George though. Effete pink hippo eh?

Zippy would say it as it is and be forcibly zipped up in 2019 for speaking the truth.
( I always thought Bungle was a dim goody two-shoes, he’d probably be woke.)

What would zippy say?

Another 70s child, I used to sing along to ‘Paint the whole world with a rainbow’.
I can’t bring myself to do that anymore 😂. Wankers.

People get arsey with trans widows using the word widow because it disrupts the rainbow narrative.

As someone who lost a partner I think it's very apt for what these women go through.

I read something on reddit the other day about someone getting arsey with women who had had a miscarriage and were referring to their rainbow children

people are weird

Who has taken over there? With old doodah leaving? They won’t be happy until every organisation, man, woman and child wears a rainbow. Sinister huh?

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Kramer does an Aids charity walk but refuses to wear the ribbon because they told him he had to. ‘Who? Who refuses to wear the ribbon? I am wearing the ribbon. He is wearing the ribbon. Everyone is wearing the ribbon! Everyone - this man refuses to wear the ribbon!!!’ That’s me with rainbows these days. Hate the fuckers. And I’m a child of the 70s 😭.

I want my innocent, pretty, non political, non sexualised rainbow back!

I expect Stonewall will want to ramp it up, so next year will be Pride Year.
Rainbows and glitter will be compulsory, everywhere.
Buckingham Palace will have a rainbow flag.
And MPs will be wearing block colour clothing so the HOC looks like a rainbow

Like adults today who look back at photos of themselves sitting with Saville as a child asking ‘mum, dad - what the fuck were you smoking back then?’ A few years from now ‘mum, dad - that fetishsit I was stroking has a hard-on - what the fuck were you smoking back then?’ Or ‘is that a 6 foot purple penis is holding???’

I’d rather see the police do their actual job, plenty of crimes to solve.

And they are telling the police not to dance at carnival this year.

I’d rather see officers in their usual uniform dancing with women and small kids in carnival gear, rather than covered in glitter and uniform/car/station modifications (who’s paying for that?) men in rubber dog outfits with - er - bones, or a ikkle baby girl outfits Or tweeting bile against lesbian protestors. Endorsing the TWAW line absolutely. Cressida Dick hang your head!

Interesting innit?

It seems the public have not learnt very much at all. Too many sheeple.
Those photographs speak volumes about how gullible responsible adults can actually be - fetish openly on display and numpties are taking their kids along for a day out and a photo.

It seems there has been a pride march somewhere every weekend for months. Just google police pride cars. Whole fleets have the rainbow livery. The police should be busy sending all the fetishists and exhibitionists on their way and protecting public decency and safeguarding children imo. Not spending large sums of taxpayer money on rainbow painting their cars.

Disclaimer - I once went to a Cambridge Union debate with her opposing someone who I can't remember. I was surprised to find myself agreeing with her even then!

Its misrepresentation isn't it.

For many men, being gay is simply about loving other men in general, or one or two in particular, and for women, women.

Kink and porn appears across all sexual proclivities, regardless of gay/straight, cross dressing, whatever.

They can't claim it only for gay, thats false.

Some people are fetishists, nothing else to say, it shouldn't be promoted, imo, atall, but especially not where vulnerable children are around.

All very jimmy savile, yes.

Haven't the public at large learnt!!!

Totally unfit for anything.

Since when did our laws that keep porn mags away from under-age eyes, allow it full on in public?

Why should young children see all this pornographic representation?

Which councils are promoting children be exposed to porn?

When did the Pride movement start promoting porn to children? Its gross, and what arethe oublic doing taking their dc to watch it!!!

Its porn cloaked in dancey music and festival atmosphere, thats manuplation of the population at large.

We all know about safeguarding, but some blatantly ignore it (looking at you Police, and Local Governments for facilitating porn to children)

So it’s no longer for for purpose

I've been the lone voice on this recently ( on a largely male, & largely gay male, forum) and was severely castigated. I said what you have just said, and was told that "Pride has always been a celebration of all aspects of gay culture". No-one is allowed to reflect or say anything different ( even though one gay man did, in this particular exchange. He received far less condemnation than me, though...because he's male, and because he's gay. Lots of male back slapping...and thinly disguised misogyny.
